How to play The Simple Piano
Press play and the first round teaches you the rest. Everything is done with the mouse. No key bindings to learn, so the phone version plays identically to the desktop one. The game is wide rather than tall — fullscreen is worth it on a monitor, and on a phone the picture is much better sideways. There is no penalty for failing, so push a little harder than feels safe.

Why it is worth playing
